At home, he needs round-the-clock care from a rota of eight carers, so we made extra bookings for three to accompany him. Because the care team has other commitments, I couldn't confirm their names at the time of booking and was told to do so by this April, when the balance had to be paid. I duly did so, and was told that I needed to pay a 75 fee for each name change, and that the care team would each lose the $325 (239) onboard credit that was part of the original booking.

"What makes our Grand Voyage itineraries special is the opportunity to experience destinations more fully while visiting rare Mariners' Collection ports exclusive to these cruises," Bodensteiner stated, emphasizing the unique offerings of the voyages.

Sandy Cay is a natural extension of our vision for private destinations. When we opened Ocean Cay in 2019, our goal was to give guests an experience that's authentic to the Bahamas and reflects the region's natural beauty.

Omni Fort Lauderdale, the brand's flagship outpost in Greater Fort Lauderdale, opened in mid-December, just in time for the busy Caribbean sailing season. Since my first cruise out of Port Everglades in 2008, I've endured subpar hotels that, while checking off two basic requirements-shuttle to the airport and port, and proximity to the port-weren't anything to write home about. But the Omni-with 801 guest rooms, including 82 suites, six restaurants, and a spa-is a game-changer for fellow cruise travelers.

I had never seen a cruise ship in real life before April 2022. I'd traveled by car, bus, train, and plane, but the only boat I'd ever been on was a ferry. That changed about four years ago, when I boarded one of the world's largest cruise ships, Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas. During my seven-night Caribbean voyage, the ship sailed round-trip from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to Roatán, Honduras; Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico; and Royal Caribbean's private island in the Bahamas.

I've been on lots of cruises, but my sailing to Alaska on the Disney Wonder really stands out. From the exciting excursions to the stunning views from the boat, the trip was unforgettable. I'd absolutely take another Alaskan cruise in the future. As a frequent traveler, I've sailed with several different cruise lines on itineraries throughout the Caribbean, Northern Europe, and the Mediterranean. But out of everywhere I've been, my favorite vacation was an eight-night sailing on board the Disney Wonder to Alaska.

Barcelona's port authority plans to reduce cruise ship terminals from seven to five by 2030, decreasing capacity from 37,000 to 31,000 passengers.

The Surrey has unveiled four new signature suites featuring intricately designed interiors that reflect the architectural beauty of Central Park's iconic bridges.
